SEVENTEEN's Seungkwan recently shared heartfelt memories of the late ASTRO's Moonbin and expressed his gratitude to Park Bo Gum.

On May 3rd, Seungkwan posted on social media, "During our early debut days, Moonbin came up to us with a big smile and said he liked our song 'When I Grow Up.' It was a proud moment for us because he was the only senior who praised a song that wasn't our title track." Seungkwan also thanked Park Bo Gum for inviting him to the 'Wonderland' premiere.

Seungkwan continued, "Moonbin always greeted us with a smile. At the MAMA Awards, we won a big prize, and he came up to us again and said, 'Congratulations! Let’s take a picture together!' Even after nearly 10 years, his sincere smile never changed."

Talking about the premiere, Seungkwan said, "The theater was full of people there for Park Bo Gum. I was just happy to be invited and planned to watch quietly, but the movie moved me deeply," he shared.

While watching 'Wonderland,' Seungkwan remembered Moonbin. "I wondered if a world like 'Wonderland' could ever come true and felt a sense of hope."

Reflecting on his memories, Seungkwan said, "Instead of missing Moonbin alone, I wish we could ask each other how we're doing, if we've eaten, and just think of him as we go through our days. Even if it’s artificial intelligence, if we can feel it in any form, wouldn’t it help us break down a little less?"

Seungkwan concluded, "Lately, I feel the warmth and importance of people. I can’t be a good person to everyone, but I want to be good to those who have supported me. Watching Park Bo Gum made me think of this again."

Here’s Seungkwan's full message:

"In our early debut days, Moonbin came up to us with a big smile and said he liked our song 'When I Grow Up.' It was a proud moment for us because he was the only senior who praised a song that wasn't our title track. He always greeted us with a smile.

At the MAMA Awards, we won a big prize, and he came up to us again and said, 'Congratulations! Let’s take a picture together!' Even after nearly 10 years, his sincere smile never changed.

At the premiere, the theater was full of people there for Park Bo Gum. I was just happy to be invited and planned to watch quietly, but the movie moved me deeply.

I usually watch superhero movies and enjoy them, knowing they’re not real. But watching 'Wonderland,' for the first time, I hoped for a world like 'Wonderland' to come true and felt a sense of hope.

What if there was a way to lessen the sadness while keeping the preciousness intact? Memories fade, so instead of missing Moonbin alone, I wish we could ask each other how we are, if we've eaten, and think of him as we go through our days. Even if it’s artificial intelligence, if we can feel it in any form, wouldn’t it help us break down a little less? Coming back to reality after daydreaming like this, I feel a flood of regrets.

Lately, I feel more warmth and the importance of people. I can’t be a good person to everyone, but I want to be good to those who have supported me. Watching Park Bo Gum made me think of this again.

It might seem excessive to say so much about a movie I watched with a senior I’m not close to, but it left a deep impression on me. I watched a warm and good movie with a warm and good senior. Thank you, hyung!"

Apink’s Yoon Bomi opened up about a personal struggle on a recent radio broadcast — and fans are loving her honesty.

On the May 16 episode of SBS PowerFM’s Cultwo Show, Yoon Bomi appeared as a guest on the “Don’t Do It!” segment alongside Lucky and special DJ Kwak Beom. During the chat, the stars got real about plastic surgery and things they would consider changing.

When asked by DJ Kim Tae Gyun if there’s anything she’d want to fix, Bomi didn’t hesitate to share, “I really have one. A hair transplant. I’ve started to get M-shaped hair loss. Because I dye my hair a lot and tie it tightly, I’ve been covering it, but it’s slightly there.”

Her honest confession quickly drew attention — and support — from the rest of the cast. It turns out all three other guests had already undergone hair transplant procedures.

Kwak Beom shared his own experience, saying, “I did the non-incision method and got the female-style hairline treatment.” Impressed, Bomi replied, “Please recommend that clinic. It looks so natural.”

Although she initially hesitated, Bomi admitted the hair loss has become stressful. “I wasn’t going to do it because many people said not to, but I think I should because it’s becoming stressful.”

Kim Tae Gyun encouraged her, saying, “It’s better to do it than be stressed. You should do it while you’re still young.” Bomi laughed and said, “I think I’ll go tomorrow,” hinting that she’s ready to make the move.

Fans are now cheering her on for being so open about something so many people go through. What do you think of Bomi’s brave decision?
